Subject: RE: Spring Cleaning, Declutter & Fitness 2014
Back in 2005 we had a burglary at the house. They got computers and other electronics. My neighbor interrupted them just as they were getting into my bedroom, no jewelry taken, but they'd opened a couple of drawers. Later that afternoon when I got home and walked behind the Sheriffs deputies into the room one said to the other "they really turned it over in here." I had to tell them that no, they hadn't. It was just that I had a lot of boxes of stuff piled in there to keep it out of the rest of the house. When I told friends and family this story they burst out laughing - but I decided it was time to get all of that junk out of my most personal space. I moved it around the house (and most of it is out of the house now) and arranged my room so it was comfortable and attractive. The best thing I could do for myself. I don't walk in at bedtime and see a bunch more work that I need to do some day.
